I can't believe that I'm paranoid enough on running low on hard drive space to be honest and I don't really even pirate content at all..
How much space do you have on your HDD? I have a 240 GB SSD but I'm not in danger of running out of space anytime soon.

I will consider getting an SSD when ~300GB hits an affordable $150. It seems like a decent amount of space for all my applications, recent & storage-speed-intensive games. Everything else can go on a TB drive. Right now 240GB is around $200 for a budget one right? It's just 60-100GB too small for my liking XD

Yep, SSD is too pricey at the moment. But as our wonderful tech dcc helped me discover, the hybrids work just as well and are as cheap as normal HDDs as well, so there's that option too.

I have 1TB on my external HDD and it's two-thirds full just from backups of my computers and important files.

I was curious so I had to check;
Skyrim: 56.4GB
Oblivion: 35.9GB
Fallout3: 28.8GB
Fallout NV: 26.1GB

It occurs to me that I may download a few too many mods.



Naturally, I'm a well behaved adult woman and as such I would never pirate anything.
Music: 213.1GB
Movies: 180.0GB
Pictures: 21GB
TV: 71.3GB


Perhaps I'll buy myself a new hard drive for Christmas.
Atta girl. Dat music though, omg!

Music: 57.6GB
Movies: 308GB
Pictures: N/A
TV: 783.9GB
Books: 26.3GB
Apps: 23.3GB
Documentaries: 8.3GB

^ Those habits are why I need a 4TB External. :x

I have 3 bookshelves of books, yet no non-physcial books :p

Unless those shows are direct non-compressed rips of blu-rays, omfg how many shows are those 700 gigs?!
Each season of Pokemon is 10+gigs alone, and that's a dated anime which is much less filesize per episode than a live action show.

I imagine stuff like 5seasons of Doctor Who would be pretty hefty on the filesize.

There's got to be some impulsive downloading going on here. There's no way anyone could have 200 GB of MP3s that they all find enjoyable. :S

I dunno what CC listens too, but welcome to metal enjoy your stay! 200 gigs is about 1000 or so albums, and you can easily download that amount if you want, and yes its all enjoyable. 50 or so bands alone have 10 albums each that you can listen to.
How do you find how much space each of your media takes up?
If you organize your files properly and have everything separated, just right click the folder and click properties. It even comes with a nice pie chart.

I only download something when I enjoy it. It's just built up over the years. I used to have more but I purged a lot and got it down from about 500 I think.

Just check the properties of the folder it's in, it'll show you there.

Funnily enough, I do listen to a lot of metal, as well as some classic rock / metal.

And I'm the awkward guy who only uses 200GB on his hard drive. Most are for games and anime though.
Nope. I've used 172,388,597,760 out of 239,844,978,688 bytes on my computer. (a.k.a. 160 out of 223 GB)

finding Castform art is the single hardest thing ever :( Such an undervalued Pokemon.
Boy... it might be tough, but don't feel bad, you'll find more Castform art soon Jelli. Sometimes searching for specific Victini picture is hard for me as well.

Oh dude... looks like I have seen more underrated Pokemon than just Castform :[
But that doesn't mean they don't have chances to shine though. I was underrating Scraggy lines back then before I joined competitive battling.
